Schenn Stanley is pretty much what the entire team is outside of Line 1. Old and slow. It’s a problem. 
 

connor Scheifele Vilardi 

the rest need work. JT isn’t a 2 C anymore. Would make a good 3 C tho. Current 4th line garbage. Barron Lowry Iafallo much better when all healthy. Don’t need to play them 6 minutes. Play them as the shutdown line. 
 

nino names Chibrikov or maybe Perfetti on the 2nd line. Chib has shown potential tho when played with names more so but yeah. Nino struggling with Lowry tho. Big time. 
 

I mean. Ehlers names Perfetti right last year so why not just find the LW to play with those 2 in the top 6.

Okay I’ll try this again as it worked last time.

Jets losing the last four out their five but still getting favored almost every game to date. So to help them end this not so successful road trip with a W, I hereby put the Flames as the favorites.

Schenn has become a liability.

Just don't have it this year....

[HardCoreBlue]

What a tough high sticking call with how they called this game. Maddening. 

Where was the hold on 55 ffs?

[HardCoreBlue]

I don’t blame 55 giving to the ref and getting a misconduct. Bull **** call.

Mic picked up 55 calling the ref an arrogant prick. I think i was as mad as 55 was with that non call then calling him especially with the previous call on names. Got me fired up. Be consistent for f sakes.

[kelownabomberfan]

yeah first that Calgary guy Weegar holds Scheif to prevent him from scoring and then the refs call the hold on Scheif that was non-existent.  I was swearing at the TV at that point.  Thank goodness the boys won the shoot out - though it looked like Calgary wasn't even trying to win it, shooting the puck right at Helle on every shot.  I knew Gabe and his magic hands would win the day.

No they don’t. Teams younger than them outwork them and are faster. Being old and slow isn’t a recipe for success. 
 

oldest team in the league now. Only Yager and Salo on the farm really. Lambert and Chibrikov busting. Scheif 32 turning 33. Helle the same. JT almost 40. Pearson. Schenn. It’s just insane. Lowry also. Nino. We got real old. That don’t work in a league where 18 year olds make the immediate impact. 
 

is O’Shea running the jets also.
